Legacy Preparatory Charter Academy Mesquite, Mesquite | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

If I could give 0 stars, I would. First off, teachers are not required to have a teaching degree. Apparently, because they are a charter school, this is allowed. It’s absolutely ridiculous. It may explain why Legacy was “at risk” because test grades were so low. The entire school is pretty incompetent & no one seems to know what is going on. You’ll hear something different from everyone you speak to. If you just want your kid to sit around watching Disney movies all day, by all means, choose this school. My kids went there for 2 years & I am ashamed that I subjected them to that for that long, and robbed them of a good education. I found out yesterday that the “art teacher”, Ms. May, would tell the kids to go in the room and put their heads down on the desk until she gave instruction. This absolutely INFURIATED me!!! I wish my kids would have told me that this was going on because I would have been up there in a heartbeat. More often than not, they didn’t get to do any art or music because if a child in the class was acting up, they made the whole class put their head on the desk and do nothing the entire class period!! Why not remove the child that is misbehaving??? I am enraged by this new-found information. This pathetic excuse for a school needs to be closed down. I plan on seeing to it that this “teacher”, Ms. May, never works around children. Horrible school.

This school gave my son the opportunity to enter the 4th grade regardless of his previous school making him feel stupid because of his dyslexia. His old school stripped him of his confidence to the point where he asked me why do I have to have dyslexia im stupid. It was a tough decision to move him here but it turned out for the best. My son says they actually stop and help him if he doesn’t understand something; unlike his previous school they seemed not to care and kept teaching. He now enjoys to read and never once have I heard him say he feels like he’s dumb. Unfortunately he wants to go to a regular middle school like his siblings but I’m glad that he feels the confidence that he can sit at a regular school. I’m really confident that his 5th grade year at this school will have him more than ready for the 6 grade when that time is here.

Where do I began… it took them About five weeks to enroll my children they kept asking for the same paperwork I submitted when I applied online. Now that they enrolled.. my 8th grader couldn’t log in to her classes and once she was able to her computer messed up so we took it back they kept it for about a week. When we finally got it, she missed about 3 weeks for schooling in some classes because the echo system didn’t allow her to log into some of the classes and they had the nerve to send me a truancy letter. I am so ready to pull them out if there. I did look at the reviews but since people do sometimes give reviews when they are mad I don’t always go by them but I had to learn a hard lesson. TAKE YOUR KIDS ELSEWHERE!!! The staff is so unorganized smh it is pitiful… they need new people FR!!!
